With a full cabin
Estimates are computed from great-circle distance, published cruise speeds, and modeled allowances for routing, climb, descent and prevailing winds — the same engine the configurator uses. They are ranges rather than single numbers because weather and air traffic control do not deal in single numbers. Party size assumed: six.

Each of these covers the routing nonstop with the cabin filled — checked against realistic full-cabin range, not a manufacturer headline.
Super-Mid Jets
4h 08m – 4h 45m
More cabin, more baggage and a faster cruise. Worth the additional hours if the flight is long or the party is traveling heavy.

Departing Savannah
Flying out of Savannah
Savannah serves the city, Hilton Head and the Lowcountry, and it is also where Gulfstream builds aircraft — which means the field has service infrastructure well beyond what a city this size would otherwise carry.
- Serves Savannah, Hilton Head and the Lowcountry from one field
- Exceptional maintenance and service infrastructure on the field
- Hilton Head Airport is the closer option for the island itself
Worth knowing before you plan
Hilton Head Airport has a 5,000 ft runway and suits light and mid-size aircraft. Larger metal uses Savannah and a 45-minute drive — a trade worth making deliberately rather than discovering.
Arriving Sun Valley
Friedman Memorial Airport
Friedman Memorial serves Sun Valley and Ketchum, and it is one of the more demanding fields in the mountain west — a single approach in a valley, with weather that closes it more often than visitors expect.
- The alternative is Boise or Twin Falls and a two-to-three hour drive
- Single-approach valley field — weather diversions are a genuine risk
- Crew experience at this specific field matters, and we verify it
Worth knowing before you plan
SUN has terrain-driven approach limitations and diverts to Twin Falls with some regularity in winter. Anyone quoting this field without mentioning that is not being straight with you.

Change the party size or the date
The configurator checks routed distance against realistic full-cabin range, so it will never recommend an aircraft that cannot actually make the trip with everyone aboard.
